Resurrection of a necro post is something LQ doesn't want.
BTW, there are better methods to read EXT2/3/4 on a Microsoft windows system then the referenced link you provided.

You are right, it's pretty stale thread but when i googled, i founded it in on the top, so probably it's quite popular nowdays as well. But what the better methods you're mentioned?

My sentiments exactly.

IMHO, ext2fsd has greatly improved since what you described over 7 years ago. As for the Paragon software, I tried it (it said "free download"), but all it asked for was a registration key, after which I promptly deleted it.
As someone may point out, this is a very old thread, but I thought that it would be useful for anyone with the same question. If I'm wrong to do this, tell me, I'll try not to do it again.

I "googled" at http://www.duckduckgo.com [i](which is my favorite search-tool), and came upon http://www.fs-driver.org.
Yes, Windows (of course) does have "IFS = Installable File System" support, including ext3 and quite a few other more-esoteric systems. It's pretty much identical to Linux's filesystem driver capabilities. As any first-class operating system (oh, be nice ... ) would be expected to have.
